In Which I don't like April Fools

Good morning, my good friend, dear reader of this post! Happy new month, happy new Wednesday, and say no to April Fools. If I can have a say, on the domain of my boudoir, there is no place, here, for such foul test on one's patience. I have been time and again a victim to such pranks and jokes. As such, no, I do not have any ounce of patience with April Fools. I don't understand why people still engage on such tasteless jokes, it is no longer the late 1990's and early 2000's. I don't think pranks went out of style because of the rise of "woke", but it was coincidental that a bad thing went away while another bad thing gained notoriety at similar positions. I am happy that this time of political correctness is drawing to a close, and I say that because the supposed man "behind it all" so to speak, the man that admins BlackRock, said something of the sort in a recent interview. At some point, the losses become too big to ignore, and the bad outcome...

Song of the week! In which we wish we could turn back in time

Hello everyone! Happy Friday to you!!! As you know, time for song of the week! Wow, can't believe we're already on August 17, the month of August is going fast, I think! Soon the summer will be back, but at this point it doesn't make a difference, it's hot just like it was summer already!
So, today we'll be seeing one of my favorites by Cher, that musical chamaleon! It's not only one of my favorites, but also at this point one cultural classic! Yes, if you saw the title of this post you probably already guessed what tune I'm talking about! If I Could Turn Back Time, of her Heart of Stone album of 1989!!



Cher is definitely an icon that spreads through so many musical genres! In this particular one, on her rock period, she gave us a powerful song on asking for forgiveness and how words we say can impact a relationship in bad ways. Guess we all had those moments, like she say in the song "words are like weapons, they wound sometimes", something we heard time and time again, and at some levels became a clichĂ©, but a very truthful one. Unfortunately we can't go back in time -yet- BUT that doesn't mean we can't wish for it and sing about it, am I right?? Also, her whole outfit for this song and this period of her career became iconic, she's indeed a fashion icon as well! If you don't have Spotify do not worry, I have the Youtube link right here with me!

This very nice song and this very nice artist is what we have for today!! I'm so happy to be here! Hope you enjoyed it as well!! See you next time!!
